Here you will learn about Single Precision vs Double Precision.

在这里，您将了解单精度与双精度。

When talking about the numbers, amount of precision that can be reached using a representation technique has always been the major area of interest for the researchers. This curiosity to increase the precision and challenge the representation limits of numerical values, in computer science, lead to two major achievements – single precision and double precision.

在讨论数字时，使用表示技术可以达到的精度一直是研究人员关注的主要领域。 在计算机科学中，这种提高精度和挑战数值表示极限的好奇心带来了两项主要成就–单精度和双精度。

单精度 (Single Precision)

Single precision is the 32 bit representation of numerical values in computers. It is also known as binary32. Some languages, like JAVA, C++ use float to store these kinds of numerals. Some languages (Visual Basic) refer single numerals as single.

单精度是计算机中数值的32位表示形式。 它也被称为binary32。 某些语言，例如JAVA，C ++，使用float来存储这些数字。 某些语言(Visual Basic)将单个数字称为单个。

Single precision is most widely used because of its capability to represent wide range of numeral values, though it reduces the amount of precision achieved.

单精度由于其能够表示宽范围的数字值而被广泛使用，尽管它降低了获得的精度。

Single precision uses 32 bit to represent a floating point number.

单精度使用32位表示浮点数。

First bit represent the sign of the number, negative or positive.

第一位代表数字的符号，负数或正数。

Next 8 bits are used to store the exponent of the number. This exponent can be signed 8-bit integer ranging from -127 – 128 of signed integer (0 to 255).

接下来的8位用于存储数字的指数。 该指数可以是8位带符号整数，范围是-127 – 128个带符号整数(0到255)。

And the left 23 bits are used to represent the fraction part and are called fraction bits.

剩下的23位用于表示小数部分，称为小数位。

8 exponent bits provide us with the range and 23 bits provide us with the actual precision.

8个指数位为我们提供了范围，而23位则为我们提供了实际精度。

双精度 (Double Precision)

Double precision is called binary64. Double precision uses 64 bits to represent a value.

双精度称为binary64。 双精度使用64位表示值。

First bit is used for the same purpose as in single point precision i.e., represents sign of the number.

第一位用于与单点精度相同的目的，即代表数字的符号。

Next 11 bits are used to denote exponent, which provide us with the range, and has 3 more bits than single precision, so it is used to represent a wider range of values.

接下来的11位用于表示指数，它为我们提供了范围，并且比单精度多3位，因此用于表示更大范围的值。

Next 52 bits are used to represent the fractional part which is 29 bits more than binary32 bit representation scheme. So it has a greater precision than single precision.

接下来的52位用于表示小数部分，该部分比bina​​ry32位表示方案多29位。 因此它具有比单精度更高的精度。

Double floating point precision are used where high arithmetic precision is required and number like – 2/19 have to be used. Double point precision requires more memory as compared to single precision, hence are not useful when normal calculations are to be performed. This representation technique finds its use in the scientific calculations.

如果需要较高的算术精度，则使用双浮点精度，并且必须使用– 2/19之类的数字。 与单精度相比，双精度需要更多的存储空间，因此在执行常规计算时没有用。 这种表示技术可用于科学计算中。
